How do you work out the length of a rectangle with the width and an angle?

It depends on what angle. The main angles of a rectangle are all 90 degrees and knowing that does not help. If however, the angle in question is the angle made by the diagonal with one of the sides, then it is possible to use a basic trigonometric ratio to work out the length. Details will depend on which angle is given.

How do you work out the width of a rectangle?
The width of a rectangle is the length of the shorter side.
How do you work out the length and width of a rectangle?
measure it
Why does length x width work for finding area?
That is the definition of the area of a rectangle. It does not work for any other shape.
What is the difference between an area and perimeter?
area is................ length x width perimeter is .......... length x width x length x width * * * * * WRONG. Area is the amount of space occupied by a shape. In the case of a rectangle, it is length x width, as stated above. But that does not work for circles, ellipses, triangles, other quadrilaterals and polygons and many other shapes, all of which have areas. A perimeter is the sum of all the lengths bordering the shape. The perimeter of a rectangle is NOT length x width x length x width but their sum! But again, that does not work for most other shapes.
The width of a rectangle is 11 cm mire than the length the area of the rectangle is 1302 cm label which is the length and which is the width show work too please?
W = width of rectangle L = length of rectangle A = area of rectangle W x L = A (L+11) x L = A L squared + 11 L - 1302 = 0 solve for L by quadratic equation or by factoring: (L-31)(L +42) = 0 L = 31 W = L+11 = 42

What is the area of a rectangle that has a length of 23 a width of 20 and a height of 67?
To work out the area of a rectangle, multiply the length and the width. Therefore: Area=23*20=460
What is the width of a rectangle with length 14 cm and area 161 cm2 show all the work?
Its width is 11.5 cm.Knowing that, it will be easy for you to reproduce the work.
Why does length x width work for finding area?
That is the definition of the area of a rectangle. It does not work for any other shape.
What is the length and width of a rectangle that has a perimeter of 20 inches and an area of 24.4524 square inches showing work with final answers?
What do we know about the perimeter of a rectangle? perimeter = 2 × (length + width) → 2 × (length + width) = 20 in → length + width = 10 in → length = 10 in - width What do we know about the area of a rectangle: area = length × width → length × width = 24.4524 in² But from the perimeter we know the length in terms of the width and can substitute it in: → (10 in - width) × width = 24.4524 in² → 10 in × width - width² = 24.4524 in² → width² - 10 in × width + 24.4524 in² = 0 This is a quadratic which can be solved by using the formula: ax² + bx + c → x = (-b ±√(b² - 4ac)) / (2a) → width = (-10 ±√(10² - 4 × 1 × 24.4524)) / (2 × 1) in → width = -5 ± ½√(100 - 97.8096) in → width = -5 ±½√2.1904 in → width = -5 ± 0.74 in → width = 4.26 in or 5.74 in → length = 10 in - 4.26 in = 5.74 in or 10 in - 5.74 in = 4.26 in (respectively) By convention the width is the shorter length (though it doesn't have to be) making the width 4.26 in and the length 5.74 in. Thus the rectangle is 5.74 in by 4.26 in

The perimeter of a rectangle is 28 one is six less tha thrice the other what is the dimension of the rectangle?
The dimensions work out as length = 9 and width = 5
How do you work out area of a square?
Length multiplied by width equals the area of a square or rectangle A=LxW Your answer will be in units squared.
If a room is 6meters by 4meters what is the square meter size?
To work out the area of a square or a rectangle, all you need to do is multiply the length by the width. In this case the room is the rectangle, and its length is 6 metres and its width is 4 metres. So its area is 6m x 4m = 24sqm.
The width of a rectangle is 11 cm mire than the length the area of the rectangle is 1302 cm label which is the length and which is the width show work too please?
W = width of rectangle L = length of rectangle A = area of rectangle W x L = A (L+11) x L = A L squared + 11 L - 1302 = 0 solve for L by quadratic equation or by factoring: (L-31)(L +42) = 0 L = 31 W = L+11 = 42
How do you find the width of a rectangle if you know its length and its area?
If you pretend that the width is X .Then you'll know that X times length = area. So if you say the length is 5 ,then the area is 10 the X must be 2 so the width is 2you simply work out what times the length makes the area.
